Shore diving at Casino Point offers a wide range of habitats and interesting sites (and sights). I've done over 1,000 dives there alone and don't get tired of it because I always see something different. It's a great place for a newly-certified diver.

I will be off in Belize and Hinduras while you're here. Otherwise I'd be happy to give a few pointers on site since I dive there most weekends (and weekdays!).

Enjoy.

as well as other info, including a map of Casino Point (but storms do move things) can be found through the links at www.ladiver.com. You can take him to see the Cousteau monument - that's relatively shallow, if I recall correctly.
